I do feel like this whole self improvement culture thing can go too far where people are never happy with who they are and where they are because they’re constantly trying to be better or do better and they’re always waiting for some sort of glow up or achievement or therapy realisation that will make them feel complete but that isn’t real and life is actually in the every day

ppl are always saying that women are "allowed to cry" more than men are but I don't really think being expected to is the same as being "allowed" to without judgement, because generally the social judgement is still extremely present and imo not made much better by it being a "typical behavior from the likes of you" flavor of contempt

ADHD grooming tip: if you want to paint your nails, do them one at a time. You're way more likely to manage to watch out for one nail than be careful of both of your whole hands, and even though it takes 10 times longer to do it this way, the odds of failure and damage are much lower.

Like if you're going to be stuck on your phone anyway, you can put the nail polish next to you, paint just one nail, set a phone timer to 5 minutes, keep scrolling through fun nonsense, get startled by the timer you forgot you set, remember the polish, paint a second nail, and then keep repeating that until all nails are done. And by the time you're finished with your very last nail, the first nail you painted will be 100% impact dry, and you can do the second layer, repeating the whole process again.

By the time you're done, you've got your nails all done and pretty, completely dry on one hand and almost dry on the other. Then it's time for you to get up, have a glass of water, go to the bathroom and probably eat something, you've been on that phone for almost two hours.

my favorite trope is when someone believes they’re hard to love and someone who loves them like it’s breathing.

I remember sitting in every history class thinking “I wonder when a woman will show up. I wonder when we’ll learn about a woman in history. I wonder when we’ll hear about a woman.” There are many important female historical figures. We don’t hear about them because men don’t want us to. Men are not the only ones who shaped this world; but they like to pretend they are.

You must always be yourself no matter what the price. It is the highest form of morality. We should both try to live it. You’ve got to always keep your heart and mind open. You can disguise your emotions you can even numb them and finally you can paralyze them. And that is tragic. Our emotions are the only clues to our identity. The only true meaning in life is passion. The passion to learn, to paint, to love etc. Don’t dare destroy your passion for the sake of others. When you do you’ve lost the beauty of life and that’s what a sin is. By robbing yourself of your very reason to exist you have cheated. You must laugh when you must laugh, you must weep when you must weep, and you must love when you must love.

Remember when she said

I have felt the swaying of the elephant's shoulders; and now you want me to climb on a jackass? Try to be serious.

try to listen to this Boston Modern Orchestra rendition of this translation, especially these last few lines from 1.18 mins—especially when she says "jackass"—finely conveys the spirit of Meera's real astonishment at the world

she and us, at the simpletons: i mean, LOOK AT HIM

why he kinda..... 🧎‍♀️

social media has got twenty year old women thinking they have to be a "clean girl" at university with a morning routine and face masks and expensive water bottles and a 9pm bedtime. I am begging the world to let young women go through a crucial developmental stage of being disgusting messy little rats. for feminism.
